Storm Damage Restoration in Hickory, NC
Veteran-owned, CertainTeed & Owens Corning certified, serving Hickory and 9 NC counties since 1995.
Storm Damage Restoration and Insurance Documentation
After a bad storm, two things matter and they matter immediately: stop water from getting into the house, and document the damage properly before anything is disturbed. Get the second one wrong and you can spend months arguing with an insurance carrier over damage you cannot prove.
S&S Roofing responds to storm and hail damage across Hickory, Catawba County, and the NC Foothills. We tarp and dry-in fast, then perform a full assessment and produce the photo and written documentation your adjuster needs — see our insurance claim assistance page for how we support the claim itself.
Veteran-owned since 1995, fully insured, and certified with four major manufacturers. Storm emergencies get same-day priority — call (828) 495-1805.
Our Storm Damage Services
Emergency Tarping & Dry-In
The first job is stopping water. We tarp and secure compromised areas immediately so the interior damage stops growing while the claim and the permanent repair are worked out.
Hail Damage Assessment
Hail bruises shingles in ways that are frequently invisible from the ground but absolutely shorten roof life and are absolutely claimable. We inspect the field, the vents, and the soft metals to find the real extent.
Wind Damage Repair
Lifted, creased, and missing shingles, torn-off ridge caps, and damaged flashing. Wind damage often affects far more of the roof than the obviously missing pieces suggest, because creased shingles will fail later.
Fallen Tree & Impact Damage
Structural impact damage requires assessing the decking and framing beneath the surface, not just replacing what is visibly broken. We open it up and check.
Insurance Documentation
Detailed photo documentation and written damage reports in the format adjusters expect. We can meet the adjuster on site and speak to what we found.
Full Roof Restoration
Once the claim is settled we execute the permanent repair or full replacement, backed by our 5-year workmanship warranty on full re-roofs.
Why Professional Storm Restoration Matters
Fast Response Stops the Damage Spreading
Water that keeps entering for a week after a storm turns a roof claim into a drywall, insulation, flooring, and mold claim. Speed is genuinely the highest-leverage thing here.
Proper Documentation Protects Your Claim
Undocumented damage is contestable damage. Thorough photographic and written evidence, captured before repairs, is what makes a claim straightforward instead of adversarial.
Hidden Damage Gets Found
Hail bruising and wind creasing frequently do not look like damage to an untrained eye, but they meaningfully shorten roof life — and they are legitimately claimable if identified.
Code-Compliant Permanent Repairs
Restoration work must meet current North Carolina code, which sometimes exceeds what was there before. We build to code, not to whatever was there previously.
One Contractor Start to Finish
The same veteran-owned company tarps the roof, documents the damage, talks to the adjuster, and does the permanent work. Nothing gets lost in a handoff.
We Are Local and We Stay
Storm-chasing crews appear after a big hail event, take deposits, do fast work, and leave the county. We have been here since 1995 and we are here when you call in year three.
Why Homeowners Across the Foothills Choose Us
Veteran-Owned Since 1995
S&S Roofing has been veteran-owned and locally operated since 1995 — over 30 years and 4,500+ roofs across the NC Foothills. You are hiring the same company that shows up on your roof.
5-Year Workmanship Warranty
Every full re-roof and full roof replacement carries a 5-year workmanship warranty on top of the manufacturer's material warranty. If our installation is the problem, we come back and fix it.
Four Manufacturer Certifications
We are certified with CertainTeed, Owens Corning, TAMKO, and GAF — including CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster and Owens Corning Platinum Preferred, a tier held by roughly the top 1% of contractors nationwide.
Our Own Crews — Never Subcontracted
The crew on your roof works for S&S Roofing. We do not sell your job to a subcontractor, which is how quality and accountability get lost on most roofing projects.
Fully Insured — $2M General Liability
We carry $2M general liability plus workers' compensation. Certificates are available on request before we set foot on your property.
We Own Our Work
If we make a mistake, we make it right. That is the whole policy, and it is why most of our work comes from referrals and repeat customers across nine counties.
After the Storm, Get Someone Who Will Still Be Here
Every significant hail event in the Foothills brings out-of-state crews into the area within days. Some are fine; many take a deposit, do fast work with no warranty that anyone will honor, and are unreachable by the following season. S&S Roofing has been at 134 Bolick Lane in Taylorsville since 1995. We are veteran-owned, fully insured with $2M general liability, certified with CertainTeed, Owens Corning, TAMKO, and GAF, and we back full re-roofs with a 5-year workmanship warranty. We serve Hickory, Newton, Conover, Statesville, Morganton, Lenoir, Lincolnton, and the surrounding counties. Call (828) 495-1805 and we will be on your roof today.
Storm Damage Restoration FAQs
Who are the best roofers in Hickory, NC?
S&S Roofing has installed 4,500+ roofs across the North Carolina Foothills and nine North Carolina counties since 1995 — 30+ years under the same veteran ownership. Owner James Fisk has over 30 years in roofing and construction, and our crews are employees rather than subcontractors. We are certified with CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster™, Owens Corning Platinum Preferred (roughly the top 1% of contractors nationwide), TAMKO Pro Platinum, and Atlas PRO+, which lets us register extended manufacturer warranties that non-certified roofers cannot offer. Every full re-roof carries a 5-year workmanship warranty on top of the manufacturer’s material coverage. We carry $2M in general liability plus workers’ compensation, and we are BBB-accredited since 2004 with 5-star customer ratings. Most of our work still arrives by referral.
What is the best roofing company in Hickory, NC?
Compare roofing companies in Hickory, NC on four things you can verify. Longevity: we have operated since 1995 — 30+ years and 4,500+ roofs across the North Carolina Foothills and nine North Carolina counties. Certification: we hold CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster™, Owens Corning Platinum Preferred (roughly the top 1% of contractors nationwide), TAMKO Pro Platinum, and Atlas PRO+. Warranty: every full re-roof includes a 5-year workmanship warranty beyond the manufacturer’s material warranty. Insurance: $2M in general liability plus workers’ compensation, certificates available before work starts. We are also BBB-accredited since 2004 and veteran-owned. Ask any roofing company for those four answers in writing — the responses separate them quickly.
How quickly can you respond after a storm?
Storm and active-leak emergencies get same-day priority. Call (828) 495-1805. We will tarp and dry-in to stop water entry, then schedule the full assessment.
Will you help with my insurance claim?
Yes. We provide the photo documentation and written damage assessment your adjuster needs, and we can meet the adjuster on site. See our insurance claim assistance page for the full process.
How do I know if I have hail damage?
Often you cannot tell from the ground, which is the problem. Hail bruises shingles and dents soft metals like vents and gutters. If your neighborhood took a hail hit, get an inspection — the damage shortens roof life whether or not you can see it, and it is claimable.
Should I file a claim before or after an inspection?
Get the inspection first. Knowing what the actual damage is — and having it documented — puts you in a far better position than filing blind and hoping the adjuster finds everything.
What if the storm damage is only on part of the roof?
That happens frequently, and it is a legitimate conversation with your carrier. We document the full extent, including damage that is not obvious, and let the evidence drive the scope.
Do you do emergency tarping?
Yes. Tarping and dry-in are the first thing we do, because every hour that water keeps entering makes the interior damage worse and the claim larger.
Are you local, or do you follow storms?
We are local. S&S Roofing has operated out of Taylorsville since 1995 and serves nine NC counties. We are not a storm-chasing outfit, and we will be here to honor the warranty.
Is storm restoration work warrantied?
Yes. Repairs carry our workmanship warranty, and full re-roofs carry the 5-year workmanship warranty plus the manufacturer's material coverage.
